Yes please.
Superb performance from that guy tonight. Showed great pace, technique and strength. And he's only 22.

The ''Hulk''

Bit greedy and one-footed, but a great performance nonetheless.
He is bound to be great.
Wait, what?
This is a new low.
Was he really that good? I remember him being hard to knock off the ball and running with the ball too much with no purpose.
I thought Vidic handled him very well.
He showed a boat load of promise. Not sure what his goalscoring record is like, but he has pace, power and skill in a deadly amount.
He just showed strength I thought.Nothing else,guys like Lisandro and Lucho were much more impressive
Not that great this game, but a brilliant player nonetheless.
He got past Vidic once on the left hand side to cross it in the box - Can't remember anything else after that.
If there's one thing we don't need, it's a short, strong striker who's not particularly quick.
Completely agree here. Add Fernando to that too.
Was a lot like Benzema's performance against us last year, only Benzema also scored in one of the legs.
Eh?
Wait, what?
This is a new low.
Porto's front three of Lopez, Hulk and Rodriguez were all excellent tonight.
Fernando too.I forgot him indeed.
Are you Portuguese?
Thought that winger was better. He really tore us a new one throughout the first half.
No, are you?
Not really. He looks like an extremely gifted left-footed attacking player which is the type of player we should be looking at.
i want him for his name, best name in world football
He's up against Federico Macheda for that title.
You're basing this on one game.
One.
Yes.
How come you've seen so much of him then, enough to say he's an excellent player, if you've not based it on tonight?
He looks a bit shit, to be fair.
I watch alot of videos from Portugal, France leages etc every weekend, but I didn't know he was 22 though, thought he was younger.
Jesus wept.
Well maybe that was too much, but you must admit he something special, but at 22, he should go to a stronger league to be able to develop further.
He's nothing special.
We'll talk in a few years...
Are you Portuguese?
Thought the other two were better. Had some footballing ability. This fella didn't show much.
He was not that good.
Exactly. He's a competent player in Portugal and no doubt he'll get a move to a bigger league next year but he isn't even the best forward in this Porto side, Lisandro is.
Above 22 year old's average.
People are getting strict lately, if he is not Messi he is not special.
I'm not talking bout you Brwned just here.
He was pretty fast for a big guy. Like 2nd movie Hulk, not 1st movie Hulk.
Fair point but it wasn't just any old game was it? When a player comes to Old Trafford and puts in as impressive a performance as I thought Hulk did last night then to my mind it's a fairly good indicator that's he's a very good player with the potential at just 22 to become even better.
I look forward to bumping this thread in the future, hopefully not next Wednesday.
Was it me, or did anyone else laugh every time the commentator said 'Hulk'...it just didnt sound right at all. Sounded so out of place.
